Europe includes several cultures within its’ borders. These cultures are connected with each other through many common  elements. It is  significant to learn these elements and increase awareness towards them for creating better integration  of the people in Europe. The formal learning methods are not enough and inclusive to provide this learning opportunity. Using the common  products and elements of Europe as a tool may facilitate to develop these innovative learning methods. Wine is one of the most important products which is processed deeply inside of the European culture.
